Rebuilt my development Alpine SoC Linux kernel with module support, so I could have a faster edit-test-cycle for the driver I'm writing by just scp .ko && ins/rmmod. Only realized after setting up everything that the whole reason I'm writing this driver is to have a NIC. Hmm.

I guess I could still xmodem the .ko, if busybox has support for that?

Maybe netcat running on the hypervisor + a fifo mounted on the Alpine image ?

There is no hypervisor, it's bare-metal hardware, and all I have in terms of external connectivity right now is a 115200n8 UART.

I mean, at that point I'd rather use xmodem, picocom has builtin support and busybox seems to ship with a proper implementation of "rx" :)
